(Cover) - EN Showbiz - The-Dream wants his new album to be crammed with collaborations, and plans to ask Jay-Z, Kanye West and Drake to work with him.

The American musician real name Terius Youngdell Nash is currently working on his fourth record, which is called The Love, IV. As well as having a successful solo career the star has written tracks for a number of big-name stars, and produced for some of the biggest names in the business. Most notably, he co-wrote Rihannas hit Umbrella and produced Beyonc Knowles hit Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It).

He signed to Def Jam Records in 2007 and the list of stars hes teamed up with continues to grow, so The-Dream is planning to call in some favours now hes working on his own release.

This album is gonna have more features, which is unique for me, 'cause I usually don't carry a lot of features, he told MTV News. I'm calling it out now. I'm cashing in my chips. I'm gonna try to get everybody, Wayne, [Kanye], Jay, Drake, Mary, anybody that I've worked with or [loaned] a hand to, I'm trying to get on my album.

The Love, IV has the cautious release date of June 7, depending on whether The-Dream can get it finished by then. For a while he was thinking of retiring from the music business completely, thought to be due to personal problems.

The 33-year-old split from his wife Christina Milian last year after less than a year of marriage, amidst claims he was unfaithful. He later spoke about the break-up on his blog, revealing he became so depressed about the failing relationship he tried to kill himself.

The-Dream has taken time out and now feels strong enough to return to the business. He is hoping to get a number of big-name producers involved with his upcoming release, with Dr. Dre a muted collaborator. (C) Cover Media
